Right and left of a car are from the same point of view as you would say for yourself. Passengerside is right, driverside is left. As if the car's headlights were it's eyes and the bumper it's mouth.
If you lookup parts and it says front left...that's driverside front.

UPDATE:
It was a spark plug that had basically cracked in half. My car was making the EXACT same noise as could be heard in those videos, and it turned out to a spark plug, not a blown engine. I'm glad everyone jumped on the "LOL HAUL 'ER TO THE DUMP" bandwagon, though.
Hopefully the guys in the aforementioned videos checked their spark plugs before turfing their wheels.

Read the OP. I had just gotten off of work and it was pretty much pitch black in the parking lot I managed to pull into. All I had was a pen light. It's pretty difficult to diagnose a cracked #2 plug that's on the back side of your engine almost jammed into the firewall in those conditions. I'd love to hear the logic on why they decided to jam a spark plug back there. There's not nearly enough room to get it out of there without lifting the engine or cutting some holes when you're trying to get it out of there.
I just find it amusing that my car sounded EXACTLY like a car that was fit for the dump, but less than $50 later runs as good as new. <3
